True or False: Write True if the statement is correct and False if otherwise. i. Esters are formed by the reaction of a salt with an acid. ii. In such reactions, the —OR group from the alcohol replaces the —OH group in the carboxylic acid. iii. Esters are polar compounds, but they cannot form hydrogen bonds to each other.
